Intro
Heralding the events marking Pforzheim’s 250th anniversary as the »ity of Gold in 2017, its Jewellery Museum will be dedicating an exhibition to wristwatches. After all, it was the production of watches that once laid the foundations for Pforzheim’s traditional jewellery and watchmaking industries.
